<j​effro256:monero.social> What would be some other real padding-related problems if you're converting a trivially copyable type to a byte span? Main one that I can think of is using `memcmp` on the while memory region to test element-wise equivalence

<j​effro256:monero.social> Yes which is why I think those functions that need contiguity should assert that IMO instead of the as_span functions itself . because padding is not inherently an issue for byte spans, only if you do certain operations treating it like it has no padding

<f​ede:xmr.mx> what do you think about adding checkpoints for faster synchronization to stagenet (issue 9075)? synchronizing daemon for stagenet can take several hours on SSD with an Intel / older CPU because there are some blocks with many transactions and tx verification is slow, and also because of RandomX hash time. I think it would be a great improvement for community developers.

<r​ucknium:monero.social> That would help stressnet a lot too if it was done for testnet.

vtnerd invited you to a hackerone issue that is related to something you worked on

<r​ucknium:monero.social> me? Ok thanks.

<r​ucknium:monero.social> I guess that message wasn't for me since I don't see anything in my hackerone inbox.

<v​tnerd:monero.social> jeffro256: but what possible operation could you do with a byte span that isn't impacted negatively by padding? It's a sequence of bytes that has arbitrary values within it

rucknium: I tagged vtnerd, was that not visible on Matrix?

oh

i see why my message was confusing

<k​ewbit:matrix.org> Your XMR node is the only one I can find that isn’t slow af

<r​ucknium:monero.social> kewbit: Nice. Well, half-nice. Too bad that other nodes are slow. Mine is on a pretty powerful machine.

<k​ewbit:matrix.org> What spec,

<3​21bob321:monero.social> google quantum pc

<k​ewbit:matrix.org> I started renting one like with like 12 core 48GB ram last week haven’t run anything on it yes, gunna do stressnet, and an XMR node and maybe a local haveno network for testing

<k​ewbit:matrix.org> I started renting one like with like 12 core 48GB ram last week haven’t run anything on it yet, gunna do stressnet, and an XMR node and maybe a local haveno network for testing

<r​ucknium:monero.social> Better topic for #monero-community-dev:monero.social

<d​arkhappyman:monero.social> hello friend ! What is the node ?
